package org.springframework.transaction.support;

import org.springframework.lang.Nullable;
import org.springframework.transaction.TransactionStatus;

Callback interface for transactional code. Used with TransactionTemplate's execute method, often as anonymous class within a method implementation. 
Typically used to assemble various calls to transaction-unaware data access services into a higher-level service method with transaction demarcation. As an alternative, consider the use of declarative transaction demarcation (e.g. through Spring's Transactional annotation).

Gets called by TransactionTemplate.execute within a transactional context. Does not need to care about transactions itself, although it can retrieve and influence the status of the current transaction via the given status object, e.g. setting rollback-only. 
Allows for returning a result object created within the transaction, i.e. a
domain object or a collection of domain objects. A RuntimeException thrown by the
callback is treated as application exception that enforces a rollback. Any such
exception will be propagated to the caller of the template, unless there is a
problem rolling back, in which case a TransactionException will be thrown.
Params:
status – associated transaction status
